*Genus Synthemis Selys, 1870

Confirmation of morphology based specific identification by available distributions ( Theischinger 2001a; Theischinger & Endersby 2009)). Mainland Australia: S. eustalacta ; Tasmania: S. tasmanica . However, Synthemis larvae from the west of Victoria and eastern South Australia agree with S. tasmanica and may well be this species.
